Left 4 Dead 2

So I got L4D2, and my pals tell me that it has all the content fom L4D. So, why are they still selling L4D when L4D2 has all the cheese? Isn't L4D2 just more superior to the first with it's levels (including the original ones) and gore effects?

L4D and L4D2 have a vastly different metagame and overall gameplay. L4D2 has quantity of content, L4D has quality of content. Although, unless you're a serious gamer/hardcore fan of the series, just stick to the 2nd game, otherwise you probably won't be able to discern the difference between the two.

As stated L4D2 uses an updated version of the source game engine specifically made for L4d2 over the years since it's release they have added all of the original characters and maps from the original to the new game engine. .. L4D2 adds the Jockey and the Charger along with a female boomer variant plus the addition of melee weapons adrenaline shots and defibrillator along with a magnum and M60 saw .. plus crates that can contain different items . the only map I think that is missing is the lightHouse survival map .

Create a multiplayer Lobby and you can chose any of the levels you want.. All the L4D1 levels and DLC are there ..if you just want to play with bots you can make it a Lan game..I thinbk you can do that with any of the other mods as well..only map I think thats missing is Light House

Say I was a serious fan, what would L4D have going for me? (after already owning 2 that is)
